The Essence Of Growth Poem by Tor Magnor Solvang

A seed in earth, a tiny sprout,
Wants sunshine, pushing doubts
Away from shade, towards the light,
A change it makes with all its might.

Then roots grow down, holding tight,
Through wind and rain, both day and night.
For growing tall, a tree so grand,
Means standing strong, on solid land.

And so with us, to learn and bloom,
We need to change, escape the gloom.
But change is work, a heavy load,
A path we walk, a rocky road.

Responsibility, a weight we bear,
For choices made, with honest care.
But in that weight, a strength we find,
To grow and build, a better kind.
